With Christ, life has meaning.<\/span> When we bear\u00a0our cross, we must remember that Jesus also carried His\u00a0and shed His blood for us.<\/span> This is our consolation, the Passion of Christ who comforts us in pain.<\/span><\/p>\n

While many come to a stage of anguish in their life, the psychotherapist usually advises, “Have fun, take only the necessary work.”<\/span> But such idea is proposing a materialistic view, and does not lead us to the real human problem.<\/span> So, the answer will always be a deepening emptiness<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Life is too important to the man;<\/span> However, more important is discovering its meaning<\/strong> Many believe that life begins at 40 years and forget that the\u00a0majority of life is\u00a0over:.<\/strong>\u00a0The preparation over 40 years,\u00a0<\/span>employment, status, money, fame … But when they reach that age, people may wonder, anguished: Is that it?<\/span> This is the life?<\/span> That’s why I fought?<\/span><\/p>\n

The meaning of life, is what enriches us all the time, you know that we were made to seek holiness, constantly anchored in Jesus Christ, who gives us new life in abundance.<\/span><\/p>\n
